Ok, I think you can all guess which is my most favourite Stampin' Up set at the moment...It's really become a bit of an obsession, I keep wanting to make coloured roses, in every colour I have, & play with the strength of the colour or make it softer...I'll stop after this one...I think I can...LOL
I love how strong the colour is on these roses. I personally can't go past red roses, but one of my closest friends LOVES yellow roses, so in my obsession & with her in mind, I thought it might be nice to make a really strong yellow rose in among a group of lovely red ones (it suits her too cause she's 1 in a million that one!!) I had only 1 problem...I didn't have any summer sun paper & the Saffron DSP background looked really flat compared to the brightness of the Rose. Thats where Summer Sun Ink came in nice & handy! What I did was sponge it with the Summer Sun ink. Simple! Doesn't that yellow rose look so pretty there with all those red ones???

Ink: Summer Sun, Riding Hood Red, Old Olive, Choc Chip
Paper: So Saffron & Whisper White C/S, Old Olive DSP, So Saffron DSP & Bella Rose DSP
